Italian · Harrogate
A weekend-friendly Italian just off the usual Harrogate crawl, with free parking outside and a kids' menu, high chairs and a few outdoor tables when the weather plays along. What comes out of the kitchen is quick — several families mention being seated straight away and food arriving fast, which matters when someone's already gone past hungry. The pizza and calzone get the loudest praise, the caprese salad is called the finest in town, and the fried courgette and aubergine arrive properly crunchy rather than soggy. Portions run large, there's gluten-free pizza and vegan options, and the kitchen will tinker with a pasta order if asked. Staff keep drinks topped up and check in without hovering. Happy hour does two courses for £20; the arrabbiata is on the mild side if your lot like heat.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
